Nancy,
After sending the 1st reply another couple of thoughts crossed my mind;
At what size are you saving the the documents? Taking as an example the
census files rom Ancestry, I have found that saving them full size can cause
memory problems. Saving at 25% of the download size can cause distortion of
the detail so I have opted to save at 50% which seems to resolve both
problems.
BTW I save them in a different folder to pictures as the number of documents
I have is large and rapidly takes over the folder.

Nancy,
I have documents attached to pretty well of my sources and they are fine
and all are .jpgs.
To view it is necessary to click on the thumb nail on the source picture
panel and then zoom on the picture screen. Is this what you are doing?

Subject: [LegacyUG] photos of documents for sources
Date: Fri, 09 Feb 2007 07:53:51 -0500
I have seen some discussions about attaching pictures to sources so I
decided to give it a try. I scanned a copy of a document and saved the
picture as a .jpg. I viewed it, to be sure it was readable then saved a
copy where I keep my Legacy photos. Then I went to Legacy to attach the
picture to the source and when I do, the picture is basically unreadable.
Is there something in the Legacy program that shows pictures with less
quality? (I guess it has to do with resolution, but I don't know a lot
about that.). If so, is it really worthwhile to attach documents at all?
Thank you,
Nancy
